How to Secure your Place
Once you have a conditional offer, a deposit of €1000 is required within 21 days to secure your place.
Please note that this deposit will be deducted from your total tuition fee. Following the date given on your offer, if you have failed to pay a deposit, your place on the programme is no longer guaranteed.
*Deposits will be required within 10 days for some of our most in demand programmes – this timeline will be clearly communicated to students and the information will be reflected on your conditional offer.
High Demand Programmes
Deposits will secure the non-EU students place for an additional 3 months. For some of our programmes €6,000 of the total invoiced tuition fee is due 3 months following conditional offer. Failure to make this partial fee payment within 3 months will result in the forfeiture of your place on your chosen programme.
Students studying on the following programmes will be required to pay at least €6,000 within 3 months of their conditional offer: MSc in Process Validation & Regulatory Affairs (Medical & Pharmaceutical), MSc Biopharmaceutical Technology, MSc in Pharmaceutical and Chemical Analysis, MSc in Quantity Surveying, MSc in Software Design with Cloud Native Computing, MSc in Software Design with Artificial Intelligence, MSc in Data Analytics, MSc in Business Analytics.
Paying Your Deposit & Fees
TUS has collaborated with Flywire to provide you with an easy and secure method of sending international fee payments. To make your payment, please proceed to the payment link that has been included in your conditional offer letter. It is extremely important to include your TUS reference number on all transactions to ensure the payment can been linked to your application.
Final payment of full tuition fee is due by June 1st, 2025. Failure to make payment of full invoiced tuition fees by this date will declare your place no longer guaranteed.
Refund Policy
Deposits are non-refundable. The only instance where the fee paid will be refunded in full (minus applicable administration charge) is where a student fails to meet the academic conditions outlined in their conditional offer, a student visa is refused or an issue arises that relates to a medical illness. Students will need to provide supporting documentation in any of the aforementioned cases.
Medical Insurance
Non-EU students must purchase private medical insurance and advice on options available to Non-EU students is available from the international office. Health Insurance ranges from €150–€500 per year (varies by provider) with companies like Arachas and VHI offering a range of plans. Non-EEA students are required to have private medical insurance that covers accidents, disease, and hospitalisation for the duration of their stay. You will need to provide evidence of this insurance when you apply for your student visa, each year you renew your student permit or post study work permit.
If you have any queries regarding any of the above, please do not hesitate to contact the International Office at global@tus.ie. We are more than happy to help in whatever way we can.
Accommodation & Cost of Living
Accommodation and living costs are additional expenses. The average cost of living for one academic year is approx. €16,000 (total living expenses). You can find a detailed breakdown of the cost of living on the TUS Global living costs page. It is extremely important to book accommodation early and prior to arrival. Find out your accommodation options for any of the TUS Campuses at the TUS Global Accommodation Page.
TUS will require students to have secured accommodation before July 1st. TUS reserves the right to rescind offers where students don’t secure accommodation before arrival in Ireland.
